00:01 Hi guys.

00:02 Today we're looking at the question.

00:03 Humanistic psychologists assert that people are motivated to self -actualize.

00:14 Which of the following statements best describes the meaning of this term? so it's just basically asking us what does self -actualize mean? it's going to be pretty simple, but i think it's going to be helpful to break up the word and go through it before we look at our answers.

00:30 So when we look at self, self -explanatory, i believe, where it's going to be, something you are doing to yourself or something someone is doing to themselves.

00:40 So it's basically just going to be defined as action of self.

00:49 Okay.

00:50 And then when we look at actualize, actualize the direct meaning is make something that isn't real, real.

00:56 So what this is going to look like in psychology is going to basically the idea of turning a desire.

01:03 A lot of times a desire about someone else or a desire about like, not desire about someone else, sorry.

01:10 A desire about your situation, yourself, and making it real, changing it from desire into reality.

01:17 Or changing it from imagined into reality.

01:21 So this is going to just be making it real.

01:24 Make it real.

01:30 Okay.

01:32 So when we look at the word altogether, it basically means make something about myself.

01:39 That's a lot of times going to refer to.

01:42 A change, an ideal change i want to see in myself, or like reaching my imagined, or like my pictured potential, making that real.

01:53 Okay.

01:54 So, since we've looked at the definition, i think it's going to help us when we start looking at the answers.

02:03 So the options they give us, let's go through them, get to our closest one.

02:08 A, accepting themselves as the way they are.

02:10 So self -acceptance.

02:14 I would label that.

02:16 That's going to be probably pretty close to the self part of the word, where you're doing something to yourself or someone doing something to themselves, but it's acceptance.

02:29 It's taking something that's already real and accepting it rather than making something that isn't real, real...
